Blitz Chess #388: English Opening, Caro-Kann Defensive System

It’s a non-confrontational beginning out of some English Opening/Caro-Kann Defensive System. Black gives white the 2 bishops early on, and maintains a solid structure. What would come from the opening up of the center, and what would be the focal point for each side, if any? This was a 5|0 time control game, where I was playing with the white pieces.

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
